About Me

Three years at CWM made me a real traditionalist, and I keep remembering Bob Parkinson saying, "I want the people to see what the circus used to be, not what it is today. That's what this site is about!

The third boy,(in the air)???? Two days before starting College he, "ran away to join the Circus", & never looked back. Who is he???? The talent scout for the TV show was Ray Beaudet, who was later a booking agent associated with Leo Grund.
